Elsa's Story

Elsa: The Polished & Peaceful Puppy <br/>Elsa is a gentle soul who has made incredible strides in her foster home. After a difficult start in life, she has blossomed from a nervous girl into a sweet, calm, and confident companion who is ready for her next chapter.<br/>Her Personality: Calm & Capable<br/>Elsa is "puppy-lite"-she has the adorable zoomies and a love for toys, but she carries herself with a maturity beyond her age. While she is no longer the overly nervous girl she once was, she is a thoughtful observer who appreciates a steady environment. She is incredibly sweet and gentle, making her a lovely addition to a home looking for a more relaxed puppy experience.<br/>Social Life: The "Neutral Roommate" <br/>Elsa is a social girl, but she isn't looking for a wrestling partner. She is a professional at parallel play-she loves being in the same room as other dogs but prefers to keep her "personal bubble" intact.<br/> Her Style: She does not enjoy physical, mouthy, or high-impact play.<br/> The Savvy Match: Elsa needs a dog-savvy adopter who understands canine body language. Her ideal person will advocate for her space and ensure she isn't overwhelmed by pushy or high-energy dogs. This guidance will ensure she continues to grow into a confident, tolerant adult who can coexist comfortably and happily.<br/>Growth & Training<br/> Potty Training: Still a work in progress! Elsa is looking for a patient family who can provide the consistent routine and positive reinforcement a young dog needs to master the "house dog" life.<br/> The Reward: A loyal, low-drama best friend who is ready to be the heart of your home.<br/><br/>Elsa's adoption fee is $425 plus MN tax which covers her spay, vaccinations appropriate at the time of adoption, microchip and any additional medical care she may have needed while in the rescue's care. <br/>We are a foster based rescue, we do not house dogs at a facility. Age and breed are NLR's best guess as we often don't know who or what mom and dad are. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website www.northernlakesrescue.org
